In the last few years, Hillsborough has been fortunate to perform extremely well in the postseason District 52 All-Star tournaments. These successes were due in no small measure to the selection of the top players for the five All-Star Teams, their commitment to baseball and their near-perfect attendance at all practices and tournament games. If your son or daughter wants the opportunity to be selected to one of five Hillsborough All-Star Teams, you must be available to attend virtually all of the All-Star practices and games. You will be asked to sign an availability questionnaire and commit to the schedule. If you are selected, it will be one of the most exciting and certainly most memorable experiences your child and you will share in Little League baseball. All Majors and Minors managers, along with the President and Player Agent, meet at the end of the season to select All-Stars based solely on merit and skill.
